How many times, do people have to weep
For their loved ones, as innocent as they can be
I'm not angry at the gunman
I'm angry about the situation
He was loved by everyone
But now he's gone and i'm heartbroken
So many people that can't see
So they're given glasses to see
Guns and violence for them
To help decide what they wanna be
Why can't there be different lenses for them
So we can see
Our loved ones again
I've heard many times
Another gunman's on the loose
When did it become
Regular news
It saddens me to say I lost my wife
Another 59 people have died
It hurts my heart to anyone that just was coming out
To enjoy what should have been a fun night
So many people that can't see
So they're given glasses to see
Blood and revenge for them
To help decide what they wanna be
Why can't there be different lenses for them
So we can see
Our loved ones again
It's unspeakable
That someone would kill
Children who know
Nothing of violence
Maybe it's time that two
People that wanna be president
Will step and show what
They're going to do about it
So many people that can't see
So they're given glasses to see
Oh I can't wait for that day
Oh I can't wait for them to say
Oh when they say
I can see clearly now, I am free
From the burden of blood and greed
I can walk alone and see my family
I know this day will come, you will see
But for now
I will sing
For the ones
That lost their loved ones
